this magic that was affected between nigeria and which is there was two years ago has favored massively reduced their ways not part from that but the fact is that it is true that. the leadership of these holding is mostly pretty spaced and they have been unable to so you can find a compromise with the spies were forced by land them so that's a way to east with we had seen last year was mostly sick torrie of protests in health care or of education workers and said to us now we're seeing a more generalized anger of the system not just of the government but of the whole political system and this has to do with the with the scandals of corruption which are now of very prominent in the spanish media people are very angry about vast and what we're seeing is so actually something very new in spain a very wide and deep protest and that goes far beyond stating

all the problems caused by. well the c.s. the spirit seems to be gone from spain and i bear airlines demonstrators with opposed supported by thousands of protesters who flooded the streets railing against the government's plans to privatized public health care it's the first time cities outside the capital madrid have been engulfed by protests. in a few minutes of freedom of speech of verses and two semesters i'm. referring to racism has nothing to do with the foreign relation of freedom of expression it is an american concept and it cannot be applied in france in the way it is understood in the us a sense a ship debate ignites in france after a cordial rules of twitter and over private data of users allegedly posting hate speech. they gyptian city of course has

been brought to a standstill by mass protests initiated by football fans several thousands of activists blocked access to the local railroad and port and force factories to shut down as well as a wave of unrest in general sparked by death sentences given to twenty one football fans they were found guilty of inciting last year's riot that left more than seventy people did belcher has the latest from cairo. the ultra hardcore football fans who call these acts of allegiance how upset they will escalate in the next few days if their demands a not match the story about three thousand people come to the streets of poor. basically showing anger against the president the authorities they reportedly surrounded the governor building they managed to actually get the government employees on science they stopped the harbor from working and even went to the telecom buildings this however was not just the ultras the hardcore football fans

who were involved other sectors got in there were students teachers who staged protests after the death of a young student over the past few weeks in clashes in port sayit and as i said government protests during dinner as well the so what we're seeing really is taking quite a step towards independence from the country expressing that this is stretching across different parts of the city what they're saying the reason that they're angry is on twenty six january there was this court verdict the sort twenty one citizen sentenced to death after this deadly football massacre that happened last year in february and basically poor saeed people are saying this is unfair in addition they're saying that the anger all of the security forces so the way they reacted to protests by poorly following this very contentious decision saw dozens died he said that this committee forces attacked the people of course with live ammunition so a lot of the anger here is also got to do with the reaction of the security forces

on the protests following this very contentious verdict as i said they will escalate in the next few days people are predicting violence and they want to continue to break the curfew which is on the city. continue these activists have been forcibly bringing the city to a standstill for the next week. losing her religion could mean the death penalty for an afghan girl back at home want to hold the loyalty. russian authorities prevented form what appeared to be certain death that's coming up here on r.t. in just a few minutes. french anew with legislation is colliding over a case of online hate speech twitter an american company has been ordered by a french quarter to reveal personal data of users posting and to sematic messages arches maría financial examines of the case to see if the concept of free speech or should have different boundaries in different countries. two democracies stumbling

over the concept of freedom the french court has called on twitter to help censor hate speech on the website in france because it violates its laws the tweeter is an american company and the american constitution sets no limits to freedom of expression given that the french word as we wired to do that the question is how can the french and force this judge those decision when the union of jewish students of france took the issue to paris court in october they wanted to stop away with end to semitic messages posted under the hashtag on both a good jew it was the third most popular tagged subject at the time the number of insulting jokes reached thousands but these people all of whom had at least once been attacked for being a jew also wanted to punish those responsible people. we don't want to prosecute or treat these people but just to draw the attention of the northeast to such cases to

let them decide whether or not it's a case of racism. brewing as official twitter agreed to remove offensive content but the authors were anonymous and punished so french jews brought the popular micro-blogging site to trial the court decision in january asked the company to divulge the names of people behind the tweets the fight against racism has nothing to do with the violation of freedom of expression it is an american concept and it cannot be applied in france in the way it is understood in the us we just wanted this part of our life to obey this country's legislation which prohibits public racism but not everyone agrees if freedom is limited they say it's no longer freedom jeremy of jewish origins himself is one of them he says greater liberty shouldn't bring more restrictions but a different approach to controlling the internet you have twitter

a private company that may be acting as a judge. deciding what is legal and what is not and removing content which is censorship so i agree that this content should be combated but i don't agree that the private companies such as twitter should implement private or censorship of free speech online this is a major risk today this story has sparked broda discussion of the violations of freedom and privacy in france the right at least one hundred ninety pan-european laws allowing us or access to internet users personal information caption web storage is and surveillance. strike will be like china tomorrow although we are concerned that france the us britain and some other democratic leaders are helping to produce internet surveillance technology for china syria or libya egypt. will if they allow the governments of these countries to use it against their people that there is there any guarantee that france will not use it against its own people one day. but this twitter dispute has gone far beyond the borders of the u.s.

and france and any green intrigued with the fact subsequent cases skeptics warn that france may be happy to my personal slight. liberty equality for eternity france's most famous motto and three peers the country has been resting on since the french revolution and today they face new challenges with racism been one of them and it has many fear and whether both intolerance itself and the fight against it may see those hard fought principles swept aside. from paris. victory of my tastes we did but could smell even so we took a palestinian company create the few maimed up to the hamas rockets white of israel in the latest gaza conflict away some claiming it's the scent of victory that this break.

ok. thank. you welcome back you're watching our team for the first time since the second world war the us is not the largest importer an exporter of goods china has taken that mental with questions being asked about why american commerce is seems to be swimming against the tide and should you ken takes a closer look at how america's current education system can affect the economy of the future. china has just surpassed the u.s. in trade according to u.s. intelligence by twenty thirty china will surpass the u.s. in the size of its economy as well the u.s. is still home to amazing can of asians into knowledge but will it be able to

maintain its experts are looking to schools for the answer to that question internationally fifteen year olds in the u.s. are ranked twenty fifth among peers from thirty four countries in math while china tops the chart harvard published a study titled globally challenge our u.s. students ready to compete it looks at how the results in math at school can affect the nation's economic development they estimated that the results students in the u.s. showed today can cost the country seventy five trillion dollars over the next eighty years seventy five trillion dollars i spoke with professor eric from stanford university one of the authors of this study a leader in economic analysis of educational issues here's what he said this is a tremendous impact you can measure. the terms of g.d.p. and it would in present value terms be over five times the current

g.d.p. of the united states your improve our schools over the next two directors i asked professor henitiuk what's the main reason behind the poor results in math and u.s. schools is it that the world's wealthiest nation doesn't spend enough on education he says money is not the reason this looks like it's largely an issue of the quality of the teachers in the classroom now there are so many issues about the curriculum and what's taught in the textbooks and so forth but what we've found is that the biggest influence on student achievement in our schools is the teacher in the classroom china now doubles down on science and technology at schools all the technological advancement there varies from region to region but the try. it is there and it's strong judging by the initiatives put forward by president obama in his state of the union speech washington recognizes the urgency will reward schools that develop new partnerships with colleges and employers and create classes that

focus on science technology engineering and. the skills today's employers are looking for to fill the jobs that are there right now and will be there in the future for decades the u.s. has been a magnet for scientific genius from all over the world immigrants helped start prominent american tech companies like google yahoo intel and instagram the u.s. can still count on the steady inflow of talent from around the globe no doubt about that but experts say it does not alleviate the urgency of growing talents at home considering how much poor math results can cost the country in the future in washington i'm going to check out but i think israel and hamas may claim they were victorious in last year's gaza conflict but one pilot seeming company has taken the idea of the scent of victory quite literally creating a perfume named after a rocket artie's policia as the details. the french have the eiffel tower the

brits big ben and now the gazans the only symbol of that might appear from bottle with the same type of victory and the perfumes always make a person remember good things after we won the last war on gaza the rocket m seventy five was celebrated we were immortalized in it by naming this perfume after it and sales have reportedly rocketed excuse the pun for five years i haven't bought israeli products the moment a palestinian product comes on the market i don't hesitate to buy it but this is something special this is a symbol of our victory. in november as israel gaza war the m seventy five long range missile reached as far as television the first time in twenty years the city came under threat which is why its frequency is far from sweet to those living here i hope it doesn't smell like like a bomb it's funny it's nonsense it's the funny side of the thing. it's

a good idea i wish you all the. fields it's whether it's better to love than or should now i don't think it's right to name a perfume after. actually i think it's sad but i think on both sides they're kind of warmongers unfortunately i mean this is the way the conflict is going on in iran on. thank you tel aviv is hitting back not to be outdone the government is celebrating its own nature to. the iron dome anti-missile defense system that's intercepted eighty seven percent of all rockets fired from gaza and so this is the israeli symbolic response a state meddle with three interceptors fired from the over the tel aviv skyline with a state emblem and the biblical message i will shield the city to say that most of the medals have been bought by the company rafael that's behind the anti missile shield. as

a thank you to its employees we are at the war of symbols we are the war of perceptions we are at the war of media even here the media play the role of by diminishing the aggressiveness of the israeli response during the war because scenes and televisions are today very very vividly part of any war as opposed to war symbolism cements each side's perceived triumph over the other it's only a matter of time before the decades long conflict erupts yet again into missiles in the skies policy r.t. television. parts of the major crash to earth causing havoc in the russian urals have been found by a group of divers debris was discovered in the lake of the side where initial reports suggest that the landing and happened the meteor exploded in the earth's atmosphere on fridays setting off a slow samik broom which shattered windows and dropped buildings the impact of the
